Ingredients:

INGREDIENTS QUANTITY
Frozen cheese or beef-filled ravioli (about 24 pieces) 1 package
Your favorite marinara sauce (24 oz jar) 1 jar (24 oz)
Shredded mozzarella cheese 2 cups
Grated Parmesan cheese 1/2 cup
Dried basil (optional) 1/2 teaspoon
Dried oregano (optional) 1/2 teaspoon
Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional) As desired

Instructions:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Prepare Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  3. Layer Marinara Sauce: Spread a thin layer of marinara sauce on the bottom of the baking dish, just enough to cover it.
  4. Layer Frozen Ravioli: Create an even layer with the frozen cheese or beef-filled ravioli on top of the marinara sauce.
  5. Add Cheese: Top the layer of ravioli with more marinara sauce and some shredded mozzarella cheese.
  6. Repeat Layers: Repeat the process until you’ve used all the ravioli, ensuring each layer is topped with sauce and mozzarella cheese.
  7. Optional Seasoning: If desired, sprinkle dried basil and oregano evenly over the top layer of cheese.
  8. Cover and Bake: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes, or until the ravioli is cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  9. Uncover and Brown: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the cheese to brown slightly.
  10. Cool and Garnish: Once out of the oven, let the lasagna bake cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if desired.
